I'm beginning to think this Nia Jax fella is a little dangerous in the ring.

If Nia wasn't Samoan, she'd have been fired in 2018.

Sources speaking with PWInsider have revealed that WWE has banned its performers from using the Bucklebomb. Also known as a powerbomb aimed at the turnbuckles, this move has been used most notably by Seth Rollins and Nia Jax, leading to tragedy in both cases. Seth famously ended Sting’s in-ring career with an errant Bucklebomb, and Nia Jax injured Kairi Sane last week with the same maneuver. The match containing said injury has yet to air on TV, but the fact that this action is happening could mean that it’s a serious incident.
WWE keeps a list of moves not approved for WWE usage, but they’ve gone back and forth in the past. The Shooting Star Press was banned from WWE for years only for Evan Bourne to revive it. Seth Rollins also had his Curbstomp finisher taken away for a time only for it to return and replace his borrowed Pedigree. So, while we might not have seen the last of the Bucklebomb in Stamford, it could be a while before a talent gets the chance to use it.

Good riddance to the Bucklebomb. There is no way to protect yourself on that move and the risk isn't worth the reward. Hell, it's not even used as a finisher.

I can't tell if he's supposed to be in character or not.

Is there a political party where you keep to yourself and isolate from stupidity in all forms? I want to join that one.

I seriously can't figure out what he was trying to do with that.
If you want to defend President Trump, go ahead. But leave the catchphrase out of it.

Gronk is officially done with WWE after dropping the 24/7 Title back to Truth last night.
Great signing that was.

Backstage was really good again last night. Punk and DB went over their indy time and AJ Lee wedding storylines. Quarantine has made this show more for us. No Promo School and that other dumb shit. Booker still talks and says absolutely nothing. But I'd give this show a shot again if you quit watching.

Spud is a treasure. If tonight is actually his last night with WWE and he stays fired after this match with Fantasma, shame on them for not coming up with something for him to do. He's a great character. Something that's desperately needed in wrestling.

Spud should be a neutral authority figure that fucks with everyone.

Spud should be a neutral authority figure that fucks with everyone. He sort of was for the last year and a half as the GM of 205 Live. But no one watches that unfortunately. Plus while doing that he was also randomly paired with AOP on RAW as a heel manager who never got to talk. He just looked like a little kid trying to cosplay as Akam & Rezar. |

Just get rid of the brand split and make one mens/women's/tag team/mid-card title each. |

I'd rather see a real brand split and make use of all the talent in WWE and beyond. But Drebin's correct, we should shoot for realistic goals and scrap the brand split.

I've been saying this since they brought it back in 2016...there's no reason for the brand split to exist in current day. When they split the brands in 2002 they had the full WWF roster, plus all this extra talent from WCW and ECW going out of business, so they needed a way to feature all the talent. Now? Their roster is pretty damn average, especially after all the cuts they made last month. Certainly not enough talent to carry two full time shows and 10 major titles. |

As if Conrad couldn't hold Bruce's attention while he was booking one show. It'll be impossible now. Just have Conrad use a soundboard of Bruce-isms and make that your podcast (sort of what it is anyway at this point).
Heyman needs to focus on his on screen character...of an advocate of a guy who isn't even there. Those 5 promos Paul cuts a year better be fuckin blow away ones then, if it's taking him out of creative.
This company.
